I just decompiled and modded Resident Evil 4 (PC) in 12 hours I’ve wanted to fix the camera movement in this game for maybe 15 years…. If I was a game dev I’d also be stressed out that this is possible now People have been working on modding this... game for 10+ yearsshow more

Honestly, I’m more offended that you think RE4 would be improved by walking and shooting. Do you have no sense of tension?

I have a sense of humor, and I think I might do Ocarina next

If you own the game in steam you can use this or work on it further Won’t work if you do not own the game in steam

In the original game the camera will not cleanly Citizen Kane itself through an opening in a door like this, it would whip around

A decompile of the bio4.exe 1.1.0 was already available since a long time ago, so I'm not sure why you would decompile it again lol. The mods looks cool tho.

can you combine RE4 into RE5?

This isn’t quite the same type of modding that the other ones on here that have more views are doing. I haven’t looked into the game matching yet but imagine this is more like… Figuring out how the skeleton moves in the games code to properly map new characters onto it The mash mods are doing something else I think that isn’t getting into the assembly the same way I don’t think

Brutal thing about 12h, you have a tremendous talent and grace the Lego style. Have you thought about the Sega Saturn? In2026 there are more accessible tools than in the90s.With your vision and a Silent Hill type engine,a RE4 demake for Saturn could be achieved.I think you could!

12 hours for this is actually not long - I’d get a call from the NSA if I could do this without ai tools in that time lmfao But I have good news for you which is that very soon you’ll be able to have exactly what you just described just by asking! Won’t be long

Hm ok yes I see the AI discourse is exploding again and it’s hit an already grey(?) area of game preservation/emulation so while the jury is still our, any chance a PS2 decompiled Ratchet And Clank series launcher/combo that’s real that lets you play title to title? Or not

Okay now that is a good fucking idea hahahaha- also the ai discourse is getting a little bit misconstrued because I think a lot of the popular modding videos going around right now operate more like a game mashing situation by running them both at the same time and this is like really a decompile to edit the code of the game But yeah I played that series my whole childhood immediately into that idea Let me think about it more

and then small side note is totally feel ya on the grey area stuff quite frankly I think IP is going to evaporate soon whether I want it to or not but this does require you to own the game and have the game files on your computer already so even though I used ai this is just like accelerating a normal modding workflow and at least in the United States is legal like any other mod would be

please decompile RE5 for steam next. there’s so much we can do with that game!!!

I might take a little peek at that soon because I do own it, although I'll say that within the next year or two, I think everyone will be able to mod games that they own as extensively as they like.

this would be incredible - we’re working on many things such as expanded mercenaries stage slots but I would love to see functional RE4 enemies in RE5.

el gigante and zealot scythe guys for example, RE5 could benefit a lot from something like this. a decomp would influence a lot of great things. thank you for replying and happy modding!

How in 12 hours I've been reverse engineering mercenaries 2 for like days with claude although I guess I disallowed it to use the exe ect

I’m a software developer already so I have a good starting point but idk where are you caught up at I’ll tell you what to tell the alien next

claude --dangerously-skip-permissions run Claude with this if it won’t continue working on whatever you’re trying to get it to do

This won't bypass the cybersecurity restrictions, but this will allow it to continue without you having to say yes every time. If you're hitting the cybersecurity restrictions, that's a different problem.

Can you decompile the gamecube original for PC next? That version has completely different balance and the UHD PC version is riddled with issues.

Will you make the decomp itself available aswell or only the modding SDK?

lol
